    Wall-Hung SFF from Foxconn

    Digi Times is reporting that Foxconn will be showcasing an SFF PC at Computex this year that can be hung on a wall.
    Foxconn’s SFF PC will feature a super-slim footprint and the entire system can be hung on the wall noted Wang. The new SFF PC will is codenamed TucaAway, Wang added.
    The only thing I must ask now, is why hang a PC on a wall? Perhaps you guys have some ideas?

    Well, there's a few wall-mountable plasmas that have built in PCs (NEC's plasma engine unit, for example, slots into some of their plasma displays); this might be for similar reasons, either the HTPC market or for corporate boardrooms where they don't want to be trailing cables everywhere? Also seems a natural for using with a ceailing mounted projector in a meeting room.

    You could build it into a wall. Now that would be cool. Would have to knock it down at upgrade time though.

    I notice that the only contribution from the mods is phallic in relation. Whilst this concept is quite interesting, to be a true mod, the only thing I can think of by of a contribution to this thread is "heh heh, willy"

    I'll get my coat.

    I thought it said "well hung" at first as well

    Interesting idea, Ideal for people with lack of space and people who live in shoebox apartments, but if I want a media centre system under my TV I want a great big SILVER box to actually give me piece in the back of my mind that I paid loads for it and the silver box looks snazzy.

    As for the codename - I nearly wet myself when I read that.
